A little more progress
Still some details to work out with the condenser location as it will required modifications to the hood latch support brackets.
Then I need to finalize all the plumbing. I welded up most of the holes in the firewall so I need to figure out new entry points for the heater hoses and a/c lines.

another update:
Here is the pair of support braces - one original and one modified.
I still need to weld back in the support gusset to the modified one and then do all the same stuff to the other one..
I just noticed that ford didn't make a left and a right bracket! I am sure that saved them $0.20 a truck
However, I suspect it will be a little bit before I get back to this project

Seems I have also modified some tendons!
The original cut was straight across but after the surgeon put the pieces back together I have some additional decorations!
At this moment it time, I am hoping to ha be out of this for Key West in May
